I've just bought a place in Sydney, not too far from the central coast. It's $435k, so fees as follow:
$15,085 stamp duty
$320ish mortgage registration and transfer fee
free mortgage application, should've been about $400
didnt go through a mortgage broker but Aussie is a free mortgage broker I've used in the past
i paid about $900 for separate pest and building inspections, but you can get combined inspections from about $600ish
conveyancer $1100
costs on settlement, ie settling up bills like council tax, water rates, allowing $1-2000
and a 20% deposit to avoid lmi.
if you buy in nsw you get a five day cooling off period but only if buying by private treaty. You get no cooling off period if buying by auction. Getting a mortgage has been paperwork hell. Lenders are much more careful these days. It hasn't helped that I'm on a temporary contract!
